Darlo Uncovered

FA Trophy is not to be sniffed at, beat Radcliffe on Saturday and we have a trip to Scarborough which is a potential money spinner if a big crowd turnout. Preliminary Round winners (64) £2,500 First Round Qualifying winners (72) £2,700 Second Round Qualifying winner (36) £3,250 Third Round Qualifyi...

Yes nice pub the Vic,went in there the time before last. For anyone coming on the train it looks a real ball ache as regards getting the Metro,same last season if I recall: East Didsbury and Rochdale improvement works Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 October 2014 Saturday 18 October 2014 Tram services will...

Salford attendance ..... 234 !

Ossett Town 0 - Mossley 1

Thought Salfords crowds would be much bigger if just for the ex united involvement.

Myself I would just play weakened teams and give fringe players a chance,priority has to be to get out of this league and the rest would do some players good.

Whats everyone elses thoughts?

Do the players prefer to play to get match fees,not sure how they are paid?

Great win,good club Prescot.Atmosphere wws very quiet though compared to some aways. Agreed, great little club and a classic old ground, that grandstand surely has to be the biggest stand in the league?! Had a vague resemblance to the main stand at Consett's old Belle Vue, nice big clubhouse too ju...

I oredered an Avec Black Polo and T Shirt from Quaker Retail on line and have to say I am amazed at the quality of them for the price. Its so good it even makes me look not such a fat git! Bought a City shirt for my youngest at the start of the season and the quality is awful.He will be wearing his ...

Did highlights there last season and its one of the better setups in terms of views etc in the league. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WuPwvC4mBs&list=PL2f88AqUX3F7bjaLl2qlBGU3MZFsI3uEL&index=7 Decent bar as well which had a real festival on last time we went. Think it was something 2 free pints w...

How nice to see Darlo play with some width,Mitchell and Watson caused them lots of problems first half.Vital Purewal stays fit.

Nice club Brighouse but would not encourage anyone to walk from the station,I was knackered!

Hoping to do this one.

Is there anyone going on the train from Manchester who wants to share a cab at the other end as ground looks a couple of miles from the station.

..... Big and quite impressive .... It's at the back of the massive stand and runs pretty much along its length .... from what I remember

Hope we get that far,cheers AIDO

Got this info off their site,for those like me who didnt go last season.For those that did whats the clubhouse like? Prescot Station is on the Northern Line that runs from Liverpool Lime Street through Prescot and on to St Helens or Wigan. This walk will only take about 15 minutes and is loaded with...

Dont remember the ground being anything special,all I can remember is a wedding reception going on in the Clubhouse at the same time as the game lol. Think Darlo need to keep in contention for the Play Offs,maybe a bit less expectation now lost to Salford. Darlo need to be out of this league pronto ...

Thanks for reply,will order tonight then.

Sorry if in wrong place,tried to pm but no luck. Bought some items on line tonight and wanted to buy Avec Black Polo / T Shirts but wasnt sure if they come with the Darlo Badge embroided on them? The picture on the site does not show the Darlo badge,just Avec logo, but saw someone wearing one recent...

I think whoever thought of and organised this event deserves a massive pat on the back,brilliant idea.

When I walked in with my lad there were a few Droylsden fans behind the goal but in their mix was a fat bald bloke,mid 40s. When Darlo scored a Darlo fan ran on the pitch and the fat bald bloke strolled over and told the lad that if he did it again he would be thrown out.He was aggressive in his ma...

Noticed this hasnt changed for a couple of weeks......im a Blue Peter child so like to have a look every so often to see hows its doing.

I know my tenner went in last week...is it stuck?

The Metro Link tram is the best way to get from Manchester to the match. The tram stop is 5 minutes from the ground. It looks like they run every 15 minutes and the journey takes 15 minutes The route (to Ashton under Lyme) also passes the Eithad stadium - i f anyone cares! EDIT - anyone got a pub m...

For anyone coming on the train you can get a tram (towards Ashton) from Piccadily Station that stops at Droylsden.It goes just past Citys Stadium on the way.

Its then a short walk to the ground,couple of pubs next door if I remember.

Excellent work.....are we still doing the fan photos section?

I was joking with the example of Aguero & Toure. The difference in the case of Man City and United / Chelsea is that they are simply buying clubs, there is no friendly agreement. The owners of City are the same as New York and Melbourne that's where things get murky. I also find it strange that the...

Great day out,Burscough a nice place.

Darlo should have won,couldnt finish them off.

My lad got pics with the Darlo players who were fantastic to a man,credit to the club.

Darlo will wrote:So is anyone else making the long trip to burscough tomorrow?

I am but only from Manchester!

Will be interesting to see the support Darlo take,novelty of the division wearing off and all that?

Pub just next to the ground is excellent, they even done free food last season. Seemed to be some issue with the people in the pub (Supporters Club/Trust) and the guys on the gate (Club). Even Burscough twitter is unofficial and has mentioned they may do the hotpot again. You can actually watch the...

The first pub you come to in the town (not the one right near the station, didn't go in there) was a decent real ale pub doing plenty of food trade too. We went in before and after the game, it was packed afterwards. Another pub further along the town just over a bridge, nowt nor summat of a place ...

At some point player ownership must be looked into. I remember years ago when Nike were reportedly stopped from buying (the fat) Ronaldo and then leasing him to teams. Here though we have David Villa signing for New York a club that really only exists on paper and is set to play his first 2 months ...

My first match for some time. Taking my youngest and my Brother,who now lives in Wigan, may be joining us on the way for his first Darlo game. Getting the train from Manchester to Burscough Bridge,pub across from the station and one at the ground I think.Ground 10 mins from the station looking at ma...
